ooc | Blair & Lydia
Oh yeah, I can totally see that happening. B/c like Blair definitely respects and appreciates intelligence, but there’s a difference in her mind between being smart and being a nerd/teacher’s pet. And that’s something she probably would have said to Lydia at some point. And I don’t know if she would have necessarily even meant hide your intelligence, so much as she would have meant, don’t be a loser/nerd, you know?
Anyway, I also see where these two would get along even better than most of Blair’s other friends, b/c Lydia is definitely an equal and not one of Blair’s “minions” but at the same time, she’s not this huge rival either, b/c I think Blair and Lydia both being able to be the “Queen Bee” of their respective schools, wouldn’t bring out Blair’s competitive side towards her either. And as long as they’ve never fought over boys, then I don’t see her having the like love/hate relationship she has with her other girl friends, haha.
Yeah, but I could see at the same time where maybe Lydia misinterpreted it? So while Blair meant one thing, Lydia heard another and didn't want to lose her brilliant, popular friend so completely changed herself, kinda kept her intelligence from showing, only let it peek out every once in a while.
And omg, right? I think it's one of those things where they work together so well basically because there's no reason for them to fight over anything. They've taken over the two circles of high school life in town and have kind of made a truce, if you will. The two queen bees of the teens in town.
Also, I don't see where they would fight over boys. I mean, right now Lydia's with Jackson, and unless Blair was ever into Jackson, (which could have been possible, Jackson's pretty rich, might have run in Blair's circles, may have even been how these two met) Lydia wouldn't really have a problem with Blair in that realm. Lydia likes to flirt, but really only loves Jackson atm. I could see too where Lydia would figure out which boys in Blair's circle are off-limits for flirting, too. Like Blair'd give her a certain look and Lydia'd back off, etc.
